I always buy food here and it's delicious, we even have friends that come from Connecticut and we come here and eat $80 worth of food. But today we decided to call in an order for take out ... We changed our mind and decided we'd like to eat at the restaurants but the staff wouldn't allow us. They said if you order over there phone you can not eat in the restaurant because it's already packed. When we asked for a manager they told us the manager was unavailable, I offered to leave my number so they could call me but the girl wouldn't take my number. She did give me a bumper sticker and told me to call... I will. But I'm upset... The persons at the counter were a tad bit rude. Now I have to go home and do dishes. read more

Here is where I can satisfy meat cravings for less than $5. Half a rotisserie chicken, that is not dry, but juicy, flavorful, and orgasmic doused in aji? Only $4.25?! I'm sold. The pollo saltado combo, which comes with rice and beans, is just as delicious. The chicken is pan-seared, then stir-fried with tomatoes, onions, and fries. The chunks of chicken are packed with flavor from the sauce and the searing, and the beans are a great texture, which I would place on a spectrum between refried beans and black beans right in the middle - not completely mushy, but mashed enough that individual beans have lost their shape. At $8, it definitely costs more than the rotisserie chicken, but it's a huge portion and definitely worth it. Besides, $8 for a solid meal is still inexpensive. Despite the fact that you might be fit to burst with the chicken and the rice, don't forget the sweet fried plantains and the salchipapas. To note, the salchipapas aren't on the actual menu, but they are posted on the specials at the restaurant. And don't forget the crack sauce. read more

The chicken is scrumptious. And the fried plantains! The sauce... I was super impressed and had my first inca cola :) the ambiance is very casual. read more

Now, this is a very nice if not wonderful place to visit every night if you are single and have not time to cook at home. The price is superb. The food as well. the chimichurri sauce is niceeeee, especially over the beans. For $4.50 for a 1/4 chicken with rice and beans is outstanding. Plus for a better meal, add maduros(ripe plantains) = $7.50 good price and it worth the price. read more

Cheap. Chicken so good. Cheap. Cheap. Cheap. Love. Love. Love. Wish they didn't close so early (9:00pm). Can't wait to try the ribs! read more

Food is good. Service is not that great. They are under staffed, they need more waiters and runners. Hopefully the owner sees this review and take care of the issue. read more

Chicken was good, but the problem started when they took my initial order wrong for one of the items. I get home to see I had maduros instead of tostones. Then they are rude and not much customer service by blaming me that it's what I ordered. No, because I repeated and specifically asked questions about the tostones when I ordered it. They wanted me to bring back the maduros to get tostones. They agreed to deliver it, but wanted the maduros back. WARNING: why do you want food back? Beware you are not getting someone else's returned food!! Never have I had a restaurant want food back for the correct food. Then I get the tostones and they tasted NASTY!! Pale, Dry, and flavorless! Looks like the plantains were OLD! Disappointed with how they handled the situation and how they speak to you. read more

Obnoxious workers. Dry as the Sahara desert fried rice and sides. Thats why they give you sauce with the food whether you ask for it or not. The chicken is decent though. Look at the other reviews. This complaint is not new. I am not just a disgruntled complainer (although I am). The workers (and owners) just don't care because people keep going there. I won't go back because they act like common courtesy and customer service is against their policy. I had to lean over the counter and get my own plastic knives and forks (yes its a classy joint, make a reservation). Why did I have to do that? As soon as they put the bag down on the counter with my food in it, they were on to the next hand full of cash and couldn't be bothered to finish with me first. Oh and yes, it is a cash only place, no credit cards here (they don't want to pay Uncle Sam his share). I say this about every cash only place. Credit card fees can be passed on to customers in the price but credit card records mean transactions are reported to the government. They can't hide from that so they would rather not accept credit cards. Don't let them tell you its because it costs them too much. Anyway, if I have to choose between this place and the other 4 restaurants in the area with rotisserie chicken, I will choose one of the other 4 every time going forward. read more

This place has decent rotisserie chicken. However, I was disappointed after reading all the great yelp reviews. it just didn't live up to my favorite rotisserie chicken place a few blocks down, Super Pollo. Nothing to complain about here, but not amazing. read more

Loved the chicken. Very moist and flavorful. Same for the ribs... Touch of soy sauce I think in the marinade... Delicious. Pork fried rice also a winner. The typical Peruvian sauce might have used a bit less vinegar. read more

I was in the mood for some Rotisserie chicken, and this was only a few minutes away driving from Maimonides hospital. The chicken was solid and the sauce they gave on the side was good as well. They gave a lot of fries and salad. All in all it was a good cheap meal. read more

only had their ribs. definitely worthy of 4stars just based on their ribs. goes good with or without the sauce read more

If you are Peruvian this is place to enjoy with your family. For me, it's fun affordable yummy food. There's fancier Peruvian restaurants in the area but if you can't afford them you will be happy here We left full of Peruvian happiness (Note: no ceviche here) read more

I really love the chicken here, I moved away and really miss it but when I get a chance, I take a drive and pick some up to go! The maduros are great too! It reminds of a similar place on 82nd st in Queens. read more

This place right here is the bomb! Their chicken is super flavorful, love their ribs and fried rice. You Ave to order the robs early cause they sell out most of the time. I always order a whole chicken 3 to 5 pieces of ribs french fries and a small order of fried rice to take out his seats anywhere from 3 to 4 people... love it. Make sure to ask for their hot sauce super good. The only downside to this place is that it is cash only which is always a problem for me because I never carry cash. read more

The rotisserie chicken here ROCKS as well as the delicious sauce they serve with it. Not to mention the fried yucca. No question, an excellent spot for take out. I did veer from the chicken to try the tripe a few weeks ago and was very disappointed...not much flavor and it was sitting on top of french fries which were soggy because of all the liquid from the dish. In all fairness, I think that's the Peruvian custom for this dish, but I wouldn't recommend it. Stick with the chicken!!! read more

Food is delicious not too pricey I usually get to the # 1 1/2 chicken white rice and beans and Fried ripe plantain .Service is good waitress is always attentive to your needs very quick service and the green sauce is delicious go in and enjoy . read more

THE RIBS ARE AMAZING, so tender. Loved the chicken, lomo saltado, sweet plantain. Defyingly try some rice with the bean sauce on top. Can't wait to go back read more

Horrible attitude. I was ordering food for many years from them and all of sudden they wont deliver to me anymore and no explanation. Nasty attitude. Really horrible experience. Owner never responded. read more

It's OKAY. I wouldn't drive out here but it's cheap enough if you're in the area. I wouldn't really recommend the rice and beans. It's just white rice and beans. I thought it'd be at least spanish rice. The chicken is slightly better than any other rotisserie chicken but this isn't a place I would go out of the way to eat at. read more

This place amazing has the most amazing chicken and ribs . You wouldn't think so cause the appearance of the place . The windows and tables might be greasy but just take it to go . The breast on there chicken is so juicy and ribs wit right amount of crisp . Make sure to stop by one of street vendors for home made Spanish drink on way home . There all over on 5th ave read more

Food is delicious and on point, almost consistently. However their service is awful. I have to call multiple times an hour just to place an order. What the heck? I am literally on the phone with you placing an order and you put me on hold to take another order. It's rude. read more

So, I have been going to this place for several years. They constantly make mistakes with the orders. I kept going because the food is good, but unfortually the girl they have working there has no interpersonal skills. Today was the last day I will be going there. After receiving the wrong to go order and having to drive back, I got nothing but an attitude from the counter girl. Hello! You give me the wrong food and you expect me to eat it. Then you change half of my order but keep the other cold half. Give me a break. read more

Great cheap spot for rotisserie chicken takeout. They have really good rice and beans, as well as maduros.

The food taste and quality went substantially down in this place. I ordered the Lomo Saltado and the steak was mushy, oily and just terrible. I asked the waitress for half a chicken instead and was told i would have to pay for the steak anyway. I only took one bite and found this policy ridiculous. I guess a place with surveillance cameras over the counters need every penny they can get. The chicken was good but theres so many places that can bake chicken in the area so i would not be going back. read more

I stumbled across this restaurant while visiting a friend in brooklyn. I ordered half a chicken. It was fresh, juicy, and well seasoned. I paid only $4.60. So happy I found a new cheap eat. read more

I ordered delivery today and it was pretty awful. The pollo saltado and half chicken with rice and beans was over cooked and flavorless. And oddly the sweet plains were bland and undercooked. read more

The roasted chicken here is the best in the neighborhood! I come here to pick up a whole chicken for dinner and soups since we don't have any grocery stores that offer them around here. It's really clean inside too, but I don't like many of the basic menu items from here. Rice is always greasy and the beans always taste like dishwater?! I haven't tried the more authentic dishes though which is what everyone raves about but the chicken is 5 star alone. Roasted to perfection with a nice crispy skin and only $8! read more

Our party of four - including a hungry ten year old boy with huge eyes and appetite after a long day of school and Jiu Jitsu - all had a great meal. Excellent rotisserie chicken, ribs, fried rice, rice and beans, salad and potatoes. And the Mojo de Ajo is a cut above.. just delicious. Not to mention Inca Cola!!!!!! Yum. We shall return. read more

The food is not impressive. I've had better. The hostess/phone answering lady is absolutely rude. Clearly does not understand proper customer etiquette. read more

It's a great restaurant, I have only come here for lunch. I think it's dinner is the same menu. The pictures will speak better than words. The only downside they don't have water so you have to order drinks but they are inexpensive. Great place!!! read more

Terrible delivery service I've been waiting two hours now and they keep calling saying sorry

This place has the best chicken and rice and beens. It is so cheap u can eat there everyday.

The chicken is really good and pretty cheap too, but I'd advise against the fried rice. There seems to be little bits of chinese roast pork and flavors didn't really mix well with any of the entree options. Get the chicken. Maybe ribs too. read more

The rotisserie chicken here is awesome. It comes with this green sauce on the side that I wish I knew how to make because I would drink it instead of water lol. The staff is friendly and the service is usually pretty fast. Just be warned sometimes there is a long wait during peek hours. The decor inside isn't fancy but this chicken rocks. I suggest you get your food to go from here read more

Overall this is a solid go to for Peruvian chicken. We always do take out so can't speak to the ambience. I don't find the staff friendly but they get the job done. Sometimes the chicken can be a bit drier than others but not enough for us to stop from coming back. read more

I was recommended this place from one of the assistants St the LMC Hospital during my pediatric interview. I must say... I loved this place. Very polite service, great chicken, and the pork fried rice was better than at a Chinese restaurant. Love it. read more

I used to work at a peruvian restaurant so i know what it's supposed to taste like. I usually go to the dominican restaurant castillo a few doors down from this place. so i decided to try it one day. The menu is very small and the chicken was dry. Also the service was slow. overall i wouldnt go back here again. read more

I have missed classic Peruvian chicken. For like $10, I got excellent coffee and a large portion of chicken and rice. My favorite part was the yellow sauce. Even though I got the 1/4 portion, it seemed more like 1/2 chicken because I couldn't finish all of it. Also, I wish they would let me get the coffee to go. read more

Good pricing with interesting combos that are a cross between Peruvian and Chinese restaurants. I had the #7 (1/4 chicken, three ribs, + fried rice and salad). The chicken was normal like anywhere else. Ribs were also just fine. The fried rice was rather bland. I prob wouldnt eat here again, because I prefer to eat healthy. However, not a bad option overall. read more
